Langtry's First Appearance.

Apropos of Mrs. Langtry's exceeding
beauty rs Pauline, in the LADY of
Lyons" Mrs. Paran Stevens tells in a
very graphic fashion of the first time
she ever saw the lady on the day of
her first public appearance in London
society. 1t was ut great tea given by
the COldstrcam guards ut the tower, to
which some two thousand people were
invited. There had been rumors of a
famous new beauty from Jersey, and of
course her portrait had been seen in the
Royal academy exhibit, but with the
exception of n favored few who had met
her at small affairs she had not been
revealed to the London world. ''She
came ia when the thing was about half
over" said Mrs. Stevens, land people
began to whisper about that the new
beauty had appeared, and to stand on
tiptoe and crane their necks TO catch O.
glimpse of her. She was perfect Wis
ion of loveliness. Dressed in siMple
little black frock, cut square at the neck
and showing her throat, that was white
as milk, and her face framed by wide,
black Gainsborough hat she made u
complete conquest of the fashionable
world at first glance. Everything went
down before her, and by the next morn
ing she was the most-talked-of w00nan
in England. / confess / was quite as
enthusiastic the rest of the world, for
l adore pretty women, and tho0ght
her the pue!tiest had ever seen. She
seemed quite perfect from her slender
feet to the two rows of pearls she
showed every time she smiled. She
was excited and little shy, and rosy
glow came and went in her checks,
which only made her more irresistible.
They tell nae she has grown rouaded
now, but then she was very slim and
girlish, aud looked much too young to
be married What a triumph that sea-
son was to her, to be sure! Probably
no other woman has ever been so petted
and idolized by the fashionable set in
London. wk
"Her father was the handsornest man
in England, so she came by her beauty
through direct inheritance. He was
dean of jersey, as you know, and saw
the father and daughter come into din
ner together one night, he in his cleri-
cal garb and she in full evening dress,
and thought then, and think still, that
l had never seen more perfect types of
masculine and feminine beauty. 1
have not seen her since sho went on the
stage; at one time 1 knew her quite
well.''

liberately put up;l job on us to get his
'whack" from the keeper of the store.
He made no denials. but Independently
offered TO leave us there and forfeit his
so cents. His offer was accepted. and
no drove away. We footed it up to the
bridge, where a.delcgation of ten hack
drivers awaited our coming. The big

manded that half dollar. lie was re-
ferred to Halifax. Then he proposed 10
''take it out of our hides" and the nine
fellows backing him seemed anxious to
help him. Ten Niagara Falls hackmen
ought to get away with one peaceable
Individual and two boys, but they didn't
do it. Something was said about our
being able TO shoot as fast rs they could
pound, and all but one climbed upon
their vehicles and made of. This one
said he'd show us trick or two worth
remembering, and he went off after q

we waited for the car, but 1t wasn't their

laws and ordinances, were as lawless as
in years gone by.
Another swindlc is the curiosity
stores. You may say that it is not
obligatory on any one to patronize
them, but at the same time most every
visitor feels like carrying away some
souvenir or present. Whatever article
he pays 25 cents for can be bought any
where else for Is. Whatever is war
ranted to him is sure to be swindle.
Whatever he buys for original is a base
counterfeit
Why it is that such state of affairs
has always existed at the Falls, and APP
pears determined to exist there in spite
of everything, is problem. You can't
find the equal of it anywhere else in
America. The same system, if prac-
ticed to half the extent at any mount
ain or sea-shore resort, would kill the
place in two seasons. There is but one
way for visitor to Niagara to protect
himself. Go there with lunch-basket
and q bottle of cold tea. Buy nothing
whatever, 60 to all points on foot, and
get out of the place before shutdown.
You may have your pocket picked, but
you will have the satisfaction of be-
lieving that the money went to sumo
stranger like yourself. quad, IN

The Russian police are SAID to be
growing nervous over the frequent es-
capes from Siberia this year. Tho few
who have yentured to return to st. Pet
erburg have been recaptured and re-
turned, but the majority have made
their way to Geneva and London, and
the plotting against the government has
been renewed with redoubled fervor.
Since June at least twenty Siberian
prisoners have escaped, including two
cavalry officers and several students,
some of them escaping by the way of
Cambodias. The precautions which are
observed throughout Siberia are so
stringent that tho government is per-
suaded that the escapes could not have
been effected without connivance with
the prison officials.
So great connection has been
caused by these repeated jail-de)iveries.
that special commission has been sent
to Siberia to inquire into their causes,
and to reorganize the entire system of
prison government. A number of high
officials, under whose charge the es-
capped prisoners were, have been slis-
pended, and some officers, who were
either criminally negligent or else as
sisted in releasing the prisoners, have
been arrested and thrown into prison.
The refugees report that the Siberian
prisons and mines are crowded with cx-
lies. Disease is rampant and scurvy is
especially severe. The mortality, they
say, Is frightful. The nihipsts are
greatly excited and rcjoiced over the
many escapes, but declare that they
will not strike again until they are sure
of their mark.
